In the Abstract,

“We have analysed the splicing pattern of the human Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD) NB transcript in normal skeletal muscle”.

now reads:

“We have analysed the splicing pattern of the human Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD) transcript in normal skeletal muscle”.

In the Discussion section,

“The in-frame skipping of exon 71 results in loss of the syntrophin-binding site from the protein29, while the absence of exon 78 causes a frameshiſt that replaces the 13 C-terminal dystrophin amino acids residues with 31 new ones defining a protein with a novel hydrophobic carboxy terminus30”.

now reads:

“The in-frame skipping of exon 71 occurs in close proximity to the gene region (exons 73–75) encoding the syntrophin-binding sites29, while the absence of exon 78 causes a frameshiſt that replaces the 13 C-terminal dystrophin amino acids residues with 31 new ones defining a protein with a novel hydrophobic carboxy terminus30”.

These errors have now been corrected in the PDF and HTML versions of the Article.
